My children had a non ice pack model that lasted for 3 years and was used daily. We purchased these for this school year. It is difficult to close and open. My first grader was able to independently open and close the other model and now she has to ask for help daily. Not the independence I want to foster. I appreciate that the ice pack can be reused, but I wouldn’t purchase again…especially for the price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Does. Not. Spill. Highly recommend! I've used ours for car rides, picnics, beach and zoo trips. I've even used one for myself to take to the office.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Icepack Does Not Keep Food Cold
on October 13, 2024
Posted by: stingbat
First off I want to say that we've owned a Bentgo Kids Box for the past two years and absolutely loved it. My son likes certain foods only if they are cold though (cucumbers, celery, berries, etc), so I was excited to see that Bentgo made a Chill lunchbox version with a compatible icepack. Unfortunately our experience over the past month is that the icepack does not keep his food cold through lunchtime (~4 hrs after I pack his lunch) - let along through afternoon snack time. So - in a nutshell - get a Bentgo Kids Lunchbox for regular foods - they are awesome! But if keeping food cold is your goal search elsewhere for a different lunchbox.

This fits a surprising amount of food and easily fills my 5 and 8 year old's stomachs. They like carrying it in a lunch box though and it really doesn't fit well into the Bentgo insulated lunch tote, so I am sending the totes back.
So cute, easy to clean and good sized compartments for a kid's lunch
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good product, minor space inconvenience
on January 18, 2025

This is a great item, easy for the kids to use at school. Helpful that the tray is dishwasher safe. My only criticism would be that the largest space doesn't accommodate the width of a regular piece of bread, even when the crust is cutoff which is frustrating.
